楊大治的畫是童話故事,付曉東的畫是計算機版的涂鴉,
他們夫婦倆的作品帶您重溫童真,繼續(xù)尋覓那幻想的國度。
楊大治用多年以來搜集的世界各地的童話,講述及創(chuàng)作視覺故事,并借此表達他對生活世界的觀察和判斷。楊大治把繪畫里的人物分為各種角色:英雄(勇敢的主角)、仙女和有異術者(陰晴不定的輔助者)、公主(善良的受害者)、巫婆(邪惡的破壞者)、小丑(膽小的假扮者)等等。
楊大治的題材圍繞著“爆米鼠”、“柔弱小木偶”、“純潔的美少女”、“善良而怯弱的天使”、“強悍而充滿欲望的小魔鬼”、“冷漠的小精靈”。他的另一半付曉東的作品借用似曾相識的網絡語言帶來驚喜片片,是會心的微笑,也是童真的直率。都是似曾相識的童話故事或者是想象中的形象。
楊大治一九七七年出生于中國沈陽,良好而優(yōu)越的家庭條件使他厭倦了學校的各種優(yōu)待和徒有虛名的榮譽。出于天賦的敏感,他過早的看透了現實世界虛偽的游戰(zhàn)規(guī)則,一種對社會價值觀叛逆和對自己真實感受的重視越來越成為他的行為和思考的特征。相對于紛繁復雜的人際糾葛,他更愿意在繪畫語言營造出的快樂而自在的世界中。那是一個夢幻般瑰麗的美好世界。即使從進入美術學院的開始,他的畫面里就充滿了一種生動的天性和輕柔舒適的美感,對形狀和色彩的超乎常人的敏感,使每一根線條里都充滿了只有天賦才可能具有的靈動與飄逸。畢業(yè)后,楊大治從沒有停止向藝術更深遠、更精微之處的探索,在更加自由寬泛的創(chuàng)造領域里潛心研究。
付曉東畢業(yè)于魯迅美術學院中國畫系,現工作于魯迅美術學院。在“新青年世代”中,網絡符號代表是一種生活方式和審美追求,付曉東的網絡涂鴉作品代表了新時代青年的喜好、情感表達方式和內在邏輯。網絡文化制造了新的標準。她的作品表達了身邊的真實存在和使人感覺到樂趣的文化,作品里面表達的情感自然呈現,留意生活里點點滴滴不靠譜的趣味,于是就有了《新青年制造》這組作品。
付曉東認為,她的《新青年制造》觸及的問題很多,其中還有她長期關注的新的造字方法的產生,網絡文化里出現了一些新的編碼系統(tǒng)和方法,這是一個圈子文化所特有的密碼,只有了解編碼方式的人才能正確的解讀出編碼。

LIVE YOUNG
Works of Yang Dazhi?Fu Xiaodong
December 12th – 29th, 2008
Art Beatus Gallery
35-39 Graham Street, Ground Floor, Central, Hong Kong
The artists will attend the opening reception between 6 to 8pm on Friday, December 12th, 2008
Art Beatus puts on display the works of an artist couple in its December exhibition.
The works of the husband, Yang Dazhi, are colourful figures of fables or children’s stories and the wife, Fu Xiaodong, works on pixel graffiti of the New Youth generation.
Creativity is abundant in how this husband and wife team manipulate each specific medium. Their works, though are very different one from the other, are brimmed with the same message of youthfulness.
In his characterization, Yang Dazhi is not repainting familiar figures who have become children-book clichés. The personalities, though easily identifiable, are not certain particular individuals of certain particular stories. They are the summations of many. The vivid colours and attention to fine details of Yang’s paintings aim at heightening their first impression on the viewers as well as spiking their childhood recollections.
For the past few years, Fu Xiaodong has been exploring the intricacy of graphics, whether they are vocabularies of some trendy expressions or some simplified pictorial scribbles. Fu gathers them, internalizes them and pain-takingly pixels them onto small wood planks, turning these random expressions into strong statements for the e-generation.
She groups all these works under “Made by the New Youths”, one collective name for a series of creative processes, lasting thoughts and interesting ideas as if they are of no big significance.
Art Beatus Gallery is located on the ground floor of 35-39 Graham Street, Central, near the junction with Hollywood Road and Lyndhurst Terrace (SOHO Area).
